Common Sense Policy:
- In addition to the rules listed below, we expect all users to act with common sense on our network.
- "What does that mean?"
- Do not try to avoid punishments on "technicalities" or try to find loopholes to exploit.
- Do not argue with staff about what violates a rule, as they are the ones trained to enforce them according to our policies.
- If you're deemed to be acting in a way that is obviously detrimental to the server or it's members, you will be punished for it.
- If you're unsure if something is allowed or not, it's probably best to avoid it. You can always make a General Support ticket on our Discord to ask, our staff will be happy to answer it.
Notes:
